The essay contained a link to another post, this one called “How a traditional church can grow again.” This is basically an introduction to a 14-minute video, “Amazing Grace: A church for men.” It tells the story of a Midwestern United Methodist Church that made subtle changes in its worship to be more man-friendly. Right! That seemed strange to me, too! The claim, however, is that the changes brought in more men and, with them, more women and children.

Call me skeptical, but the 14 minutes spent watching the video can certainly be thought-provoking.
